Another year and another series (or two). I am so humbled and honored to begin to share these two series with you. One will be called “Heartland” and the other “Sky and Water”. Both are near and dear to my heart but for very different reasons.

At the end of September, I will be releasing the newest of 5 paintings from my studio aptly named the Journey Series. They don’t directly tell life events over these past years, but as a birds eye view. The excitements, the struggles, the disappointment, the darkest of days and the light. Each painting has a reflection or story of its own journey to accompany it.

So it's about to be another year. Another birthday. Another celebration. Because EVERY birthday should be a celebration no matter the number. "Why?" you may ask...well, because there is always something to be learned, something to give thanks for, and the understanding that there is something more that Our Father has left for us to do.

Goodmorning on this very uneventful day in February! It doesn't get much notice except for the last minute Valentine's shopping! I would bet it is the highest day for card sales...which next year I plan to have a line ready.

The most often asked question I get is "Where is this?" Well let me answer it for you! I get my inspiration for my paintings from places I have either lived or traveled, but I am constantly looking for somewhere "new" to paint. I love the hidden treasures that surprise you in their beauty. All of my paintings (aside from commissioned work) come from photographs I have taken. You see, I am not a plein air painter....I work in a studio from an image I previously captured.

I am hoping to spend a little more time on the small details here. To share a bit more about myself and my work. I can't wait to show you all. I even have a new series coming out soon that I am dying to talk about! But all that later.
